Running app for iOS, renaming its root folder and trying to run it again - build fails after renaming project root folder with this error:

xcodebuild: error: '/Volumes/NHRISTOVA/Work/NS/AppRen2/platforms/ios/AppRen2.xcodeproj' does not exist.
Unable to apply changes on device: F6900C39-7AAA-45C8-AFF6-D923DBEF1E8E. Error is: Command xcodebuild failed with exit code 66.

Reproduziere die Abfolge mit tns create, tns run ios, einer Umbenennung des Stammordners und einem zweiten tns run ios. Beginne mit dem iOS-Build-Pfad, der den protokollierten xcodebuild -project-Befehl zusammenstellt, und untersuche, wie er platforms/ios/AppRen2.xcodeproj ableitet. Als erledigt gilt, wenn das umbenannte Projekt erstellt wird, ohne die iOS-Plattform zu entfernen, während das bestehende Android-Verhalten intakt bleibt.
